condition, length, and density of the grass.
Adjust the cutting height of the lawn mower to
suit the current condition of the lawn.

■ For best performance, always cut off one-
third or less of the total height of the grass.
■ When cutting long grass, reduce walking
speed to allow for more effective cutting
and proper discharge of the clippings.
■ Do not cut wet grass. Wet grass sticks to
the underside of the deck and prevents
proper collection or discharge of grass
clippings.
■ New or thick grass may require a higher
cutting height.
■ To collect the grass cuttings for disposal,
remove the mulching plug and fit the
grass catcher making sure the rear door is
properly closed. Empty the grass catcher
regularly. Otherwise, the discharge chute
becomes blocked with grass cuttings.
■ If you are making a light cut and wish for
the grass cuttings to remain on the lawn,
fit the mulching plug and close the rear
door to cover the discharge opening. It is
not necessary to fit the grass catcher in this
case.
■ The product is designed to operate and cut
most effectively when moving forwards.
■ A higher cutting height extends the run
time of the battery.
